I don't understand: this error complains about 'init.el', does
not happen at start, but much later, when you try to open an
.org file?

Have you tried starting Emacs with that option? What happens
then?

We can only guess. Given our lack of information, our guesses
will be almost certainly wrong :-)

So give us a chance:

 - try starting Emacs with --debug-on-init, an possibly report
   results here
 - try bisecting the file: remove parts of it (always taking
   care of the syntax), see in which "half" the error occurs
 - post your init.el here (BE CAREFUL: please, double-check
   that it doesn't contain sensitive information: passwords,
   personal information, things your employer could consider
   to be trade secrets, that kind of stuff).

Cheers
